Risk Factors and Coping Skills for Juvenile Victims

Many behaviors can increase an individual's risk of victimization. For example, if you leave your car doors unlocked, you might become a victim of burglary. The act of leaving your car unlocked does not mean you were responsible for or to blame for the burglary, but it is a behavior that increased the likeliness of the burglary. This also applies to juvenile victims. Many behaviors can increase juveniles' risk of victimization. Disaffected (rebellious) youth often challenge authorities and disobey rules. The behaviors these youths demonstrate can increase the likelihood of them becoming juvenile victims. Once victimized, it is important for juveniles to have the skills necessary to overcome victimization.
